Notes

Description
Tradition says that after the world was created, the Tlacuache (opossum) decided to go in search of fire as a gift to men. He went through several villages and came to the top of a mountain to steal a coal from Mrs. Fire. "With the fire men were men and that's how the story began." This legend, analyzed by Maestro Alfredo López Austin, appears in several indigenous traditions.
Description
Dice la tradición que luego de crearse el mundo, el tlacuache decidió ir en busca del fuego para regalárselo a los hombres. Atravesó varios pueblos y llegó a la cima de una montaña para robar una brasa a la Señora Lumbre. "Con el fuego los hombres fueron hombres y fue así como empezó la historia". Esta leyenda, analizada por el maestro Alfredo López Austin, aparece en varias tradiciones indígenas. La versión que se propone está dirigida a los niños mexicanos con el fin de que no olviden las tradiciones y leyendas de su cultura y así mantenerlas vigentes entre las nuevas generaciones.
Description
This is an opossum. This animal has hardly changed since it appeared 50 million years ago. It is one of the oldest mammals on earth and with his skillful hands, it can circumvent locks.
